More than 170 employees prepared for Wednesday's weather event, with their attention focused on bridges and overpasses.

The city's fleet includes 64 trucks mounted with salt and sand spreaders, 45 snow plows and more than 14,000 tons of salt.

The Public Service Company of Oklahoma has also called in about 100 contract workers.

They will be ready to deploy if there are problems with the power lines.

"If people were to see a downed power line, don't go near it," said PSO spokesman Stan Whiteford. "Don't touch it. You can't tell if it's live or not."
